Benefits of Fiber Optics
The process of communicating using fiber-optics involves the following basic steps:
a) Creating the optical signal using a transmitter.
b) Relaying the signal along the fiber.
c) Ensuring that the signal does not become too distorted or weak.
d) Receiving the optical signal and converting it into an electrical signal.
Optical fiber systems have many advantages over metallic-based communication systems. These advantages include:

The Application of Fiber Optic
Since its invention in the early 1970s, the use and the demand of optical fibre has grown immensely. Today, the uses of fibre optic are quite numerous. The most uses are popular in telecommunications, medicine, military, automotive and industrial. The improvement for this technology still in progress and it will always be upgrade days by days. In our project, we only focused in the application of fibre optic in telecommunication.
The Fibre optic has been used as the medium for telecommunication and networking system because of it flexibility and can be bundled as cables. Fibre optic was able to use for a long-distance communication because of its ability to propagate through the fibre with little attenuation. While in a networking or short-distance communication, fibre optic was saved the space in cable ducts because a single fibre can carry too much data.
